Hall of Fame

Special thanks for folks
willing to let me acknowledge them. Many others should be
here!

Many people have
influenced or helped me over the years, but somehow these
folks stand out as having invested themselves in my work,
taken a chance on me, or in some way taught me something
you cannot learn elsewhere.

Carol Wilson - who
'pulls numbers from the air' in her algebra class
and encouraged my combinatorial studies

Kurt Nelson -
computer science 299 independent study mentor who
said staying in the same job 5 years is
uninteresting

Rick Stober - got
me onto my feet in the computer industry
after I left the Coast Guard

Keith Pollard -
brought me over to the 'dark side' as a
CTOS manager

Kit Parrish - the
GSA manager that pulled me from the warehouse and
put me in front of a CTOS workstation

Brad Bernard - long
time friend and second Entropia grid
operator after me

Brent Haines - runs
Reality Networks and Grendelnet, hosted my
servers, fixed them when they crashed, and much
more.
